š MAKE INFLUENCERS MORE ENGAGING
Just add some familyā¦ā¦.

Who knew hanging out with your mates could be a career move? š¤·
Recent research has revealed that influencers who feature one or two of their close buddies or family in their posts tend to get a higher rate of engagement.
Here's the data:
š¬ Researchers analyzed over 55,000 posts from 763 top influencers. The conclusion: Posts mentioning close social relations (like your BFF or family) saw an 8.67% increase in engagement.
š¤³ And you know what's better than a group selfie? A selfie with just your bestie. Posts featuring two people (as opposed to four or more) raked in 28.7% more likes.
š Two further experiments confirmed that people were 95% more likely to hit the like button for posts referencing a close social relationship (like a daughter or a friend) versus a distant relationship (like a designer or entrepreneur).

How do you use this?
If you sell a āwholesomeā brand on Amazon, get influencers that frequently feature their friends and family members. Their Followers love brands that ābring the family togetherā
š¤Ø BUDGETING FOR TIKTOK
When to be Scrooge or Buffet

šø Amazon on TikTok: How Much Do Ads Really Cost?
We are always looking for the best ways to help you succeed, but keeping costs low and budgeting is key. That's why we did some legwork on your behalf. šŖ
We recently spent $15,000 on TikTok Ads, directing traffic to Amazon product pages.
Here are the highlights:
š° Average CPC (cost per click): $0.34
š° Average CPM (cost for 1,000 impressions): $2.13
š° Average CTR (% of people that engaged with your ad): 1.69%
How do these numbers stack up against your Amazon Ads?
TikTok is the currently the cheapest platformā¦..
Are YOU taking advantage?
šTOO EARLY FOR XMAS?
TikTok doesnāt think so

And you can see why:

15% of all product discoveries start on TikTok.
38% of shoppers will start their holiday shopping spree earlier this year.
The most popular hashtags include #haul, #hosting, and #gift ideas.
Christmas is the biggest time of year for us where we shutdown our families and focus on the business (the life of a typical ecom seller š).
And if you are anything like meā¦..
You probably leave planning to the last minuteā¦..
Not this yearā¦
Start early and get those campaigns ready to start.
We set up specific Amazon Ranking campaigns using TikTok.
Reply to this email and letās chat if you are interested š
š HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?
Let us get started, you take overā¦..

When I created this newsletter, I had ONE goal.
To get as many Amazon Sellers to use TikTok as possible.
Because in a sellerās eyes, they need to start TikTok and it is on their to-do listā¦.. but how often do you complete that list?
So rather, let my team help:
If you need contentā¦. We have our own pool of creators
If you need trafficā¦. We will flood your listing with cheap, high quality TikTok traffic
If you need a TikTok planā¦. We create specific TikTok plans for Amazon brands, because you cannot apply the DTC strategy for Amazon. You need a plan that compliments the Amazon algorithm.
Whatever you needā¦. we can help. š
Donāt wait til Q4ā¦. start now!
TikTok performs well for some brands and not for others, donāt wait til Xmas to find out.
Send us a message or book a call with me.
That's it for this week š
But I need to ask a favour...
What did you think of today's newsletter?(My goal is to get 10 votes.... I am pointing at you š¤Ø) |
Thanks for reading.
